Our team of instructors has many years of experience with guiding people in the wilderness and surviving in extreme conditions. We started our activity as a hobby which later turned into a passion. We started reading more books, spent a lot of time in the forest and tested ourselves in each time more extreme environments. We would like to show the beauty and power of nature also to others, therefore we organize public presentations about wild food and surviving in nature and organize survival courses in the wilderness.
LOCATION & TIME: Our survival courses take part in the Kočevsko region, which is the wildest part of Slovenia. Depending on the time of year, and the situation in the woods, we use various different locations. Courses are held from April to October. (Occasionally through winter)
PROGRAMS: Participants can choose between different programs to suit their needs and skill levels. We offer more basic programs for big groups, schools or families, and longer, more difficult programs for the more daring. These include 2-days to 8-days programs. For more experienced bushcrafters we organise competitions and meetings to share new knowledge and ideas.
Extreme conditions stimulate a man to re-discover long forgotten but innate natural skills and survival instinct. It is in our blood, we just need to find a trigger to revive abilities we gained from our ancestors. In one hand we are facing with exhaustion, hunger, cold and our own fears. In another hand, these experiences lead not only to better understanding and respecting of nature but also of yourself.
